US EditionTrump says Zelenskyy, not Putin, is holding up a Ukraine peace deal
Trump claims Ukrainian President Zelensky's reluctance on territorial concessions stalls peace talks despite Russian President Putin's readiness to end the conflict, with 30,000 soldiers lost monthly.
- On Wednesday in the Oval Office, President Donald Trump told Reuters that Vladimir Putin is prepared to wrap up the nearly four-year invasion.
- In recent weeks, U.S.-led negotiations have focused on security guarantees for a post-war Ukraine, pressing abandonment of the Donbas region, while Volodymyr Zelensky, Ukrainian President, rules out territorial concessions.
- U.S. special envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner have led talks involving Ukrainian officials, and Trump said he would meet Volodymyr Zelensky at the World Economic Forum in Davos next week but implied no plans were set.
- The remarks signalled renewed frustration between Donald Trump, U.S. President, and Volodymyr Zelensky, Ukrainian President, as Trump said Ukraine is less ready to make a deal and gave no elaboration.
- U.S. intelligence warned in December that Vladimir Putin had not abandoned territorial aims, while some European officials doubted Moscow would accept recently hashed-out terms and Tulsi Gabbard disputed that report.
